/*
This is waveform record support for the Pentek 4261A 10MHz 12 bit ADC.
All scan types are supported, including I/O interrupt scan. The ADC
currently supports the edge trigger mode for starting the sampling
operation. The ADC is programmed to record an array of samples the
same size as the waveform record. The internal or an external clock
may be used as the sampling clock. The sampling can be triggered by
an external signal, or automatically by record support.
Using I/O interrupt scanning, the record is processed and the waveform
record array is updated each time an external trigger signal is present.
With the other scan types, the waveform array is updated each time the
record is processed.
I could not get the continuous bank swapping feature to work with the
trigger, I got a glitch in the data approximately 1 us into the sampling.
After each round of sampling is done, the buffers are reset.
The function ConfigurePentekADC() must be run in the
vxWorks startup.cmd file for every ADC board present. This function
makes it easy to configure jumpers on the ADC and inform EPICS of them.
parameters:
ConfigurePentekADC(
int card, - the ADC card number in the crate (0=first)
unsigned long a16_base, - where the card exists in A16
unsigned long a32_base, - where the card exists in A32 (not used)
int irq_vector, - interrupt request vector number
int irq_level, - interrupt request level number
int word_clock, - the ADC word clock (see 4261 documentation)
unsigned long clock_freq - clock frequency (see notes below)
)
Good values to use for configuring the module:
A16 base address = 0x0200
A32 base address = 0xc0200000 (A32 not used in the support)
IRQ vector = 121
IRQ level = 3
word clock = 32
The number of samples programed (size of waveform record) must be
divisible by the word clock.
The operating mode the ADC is selected using the input field parm area.
The user must supply two option, the clock type and the trigger type,
in that order. Here are all the valid parm field entry and what they
represent (all are entered as strings without the quotes):
"x_clock,x_trigger" = external clock and external trigger inputs.
"i_clock,x_trigger" = internal clock and external trigger input.
"x_clock,i_trigger" = external clock and internal trigger input.
"i_clock,i_trigger" = internal clock and internal trigger input.
If external trigger is selected and scan type is not I/O interrupt scan,
then sampling will start on the next external trigger input after device
support completes.
If internal trigger is selected, the sampling will be started by software
at the end of device support. Internal trigger only applied to scan
types that are not I/O interrupt scanned.
Configuration function clock frequency note:
The clock frequency specified in the configuration function is only
applicable to the internal clock. When the external clock is used,
the clock frequency parameter is meaningless, the sampling clock
will be the external clock frequency. When the internal clock is
used (10MHz), the clock frequency parameter will be the sampling
frequency. The 10Mhz internal clock must be divisible by the clock
frequency value.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Modify devSup.ascii and do a makesdr. Add devPentekADC
device support to the waveform record.
Running ReportPentekADC() will print a report of configuration for
the ADC.
Waveform data types of long, short, unsigned short, double, and float are
supported.
